* Some yeast species harbor enterobactin biosynthesis genes unseen in other fungi. * An ancient horizontal operon transfer occurred from bacteria to a group of yeasts. * The operon underwent genetic changes after transfer to a eukaryotic genome. * The genes are expressed monocistronically and result in enterobactin production.
